Roof cleaning in Hudsonville.Those black streaks are eating the shingle.
It's a bacteria called Gloeocapsa magma and it feeds on the limestone filler in the shingle. Pressure blasts the granules off with it, which is how a cosmetic problem turns into a new roof. We put the cleaner on at under a hundred PSI.

Sound familiar
Three ways people end up on this page.
Same organism behind all three.
Somebody told you the roof needs replacing.
A roofer knocked, or a neighbor said it looked bad. The shingles are probably fine and the staining just needs to be killed and rinsed.
The streaks are in every photo of the house.
From the street it's the first thing you see, and it's the one thing on the house you can't reach to fix yourself.
Your neighbor's roof streaked and now yours has.
It spreads by airborne spores, which is why whole streets go the same way. Older roofs go first, because more of the limestone is exposed.
What you're actually getting.
A flat number
Not an estimate that creeps. You get the price up front and it's the price when we're done.
Streak-free or we're back
If it streaks we re-clean it free within 7 days. You don't chase us and you don't pay twice.
Soft wash, not blasting
Low pressure and the right cleaner. Plant-safe, and no high pressure on shingles. That's the thing that wrecks a roof.
Owner-operated
The same crew every time, insured, working out of Wyoming, MI. No subcontractors showing up under our name.
Start to finish
What happens when you call.
- You call us Tell us the roof, the pitch and how heavy the streaking is. You get a flat number on that call, and no estimate visit.
- Plants get soaked The cleaner we use on a roof is stronger than a siding wash, so everything below the roofline gets pre-wet and rinsed after. Standard on every visit.
- It goes on gently Under a hundred PSI, left to dwell so it kills the growth, then rinsed. Some staining takes a rain or two to wash clear.
“Tre did a great job on my home. He communicated well and was kind and easy to work with. I highly recommend this service to everyone in need of power washing services.”
“While living in the woods has its charms, a moss covered roof and moldy siding isn't one of them! Amazing job on the roof and siding. Highly recommend! 10 out of 10!”
“The team did an outstanding job! They were professional, they were quick, and they delivered exactly what they promised.”
What it costs
We can't print a price. Here's what sets yours.
A number printed on a website and the number our crew gives you standing in your driveway have to be the same number, and on this work they often can't be. So here's what actually moves it.
- COMING OUT
- Nothing. There's no estimate visit to schedule and nothing owed to ask.
- THE SIZE
- Square footage and the run of siding. It's the biggest single factor on a house wash.
- ONE STORY OR TWO
- Height changes the equipment, the time and the safety setup. A two-story isn't a ranch scaled up.
- HOW DIRTY IT IS
- A light green film rinses. Years of black streaking, heavy moss, rust or oil takes more product and more time.
- HOW MUCH AT ONCE
- One trip over four surfaces costs less than four visits. The drive out and the setup only happen once.
Before you call
What Hudsonville asks on the phone.
Is soft washing safe for asphalt shingles?
Yes. Low pressure is the method the Asphalt Roofing Manufacturers Association recommends for asphalt shingles. It kills the algae without stripping the granules that protect the roof. High pressure is the thing that damages shingles.
Do I need my roof cleaned or do I need a new roof?
Most streaked roofs don't need replacing. They need the organism killed and rinsed. Call and describe what you're seeing and we'll tell you honestly whether a wash will fix it.
Will the black streaks come back?
Eventually. It spreads by airborne spores, so it depends on your tree cover and the roofs around you. A proper soft wash usually keeps a roof clear for three to five years.
Do the streaks disappear right away?
Mostly. Some staining takes a few days and a rain or two to wash clear. That's normal, and it means the organism was killed rather than scrubbed off the surface.
